The profession
According to a Lawyers Weekly article,
last month, general counsel roles at
ASX 100 companies are increasingly being
filled by women, although the number of
women in other senior executive positions
remains static.
A report by KPMG found the percentage
of female CEOs at Australia’s 100 largest
companies was unchanged between
2011 and 2016 (5%) while the number
of women in COO or deputy CEO positions
was also stagnant (10%).
However, the percentage of female general
counsel rose from 33% to 39%.
The high number of females entering
the profession over the last 16 years
indicates that improvements in gender
balance such as this should become
increasingly obvious over time across the
profession. However, improved retention
of female practitioners within the profession
remains a work in progress.
